Chapter 147: The Golden House Hides Jiao
On Thursday, December 21, Li Hualong came to the headquarters of Centaline Real Estate.
Walking into Bao Yunqiu's office, Li Hualong sat on the sofa, crossed Erlang's legs, and chatted with Bao Yunqiu about work for a while.
"Yunqiu, is there an apartment that I have renovated under my name and has not been rented?"
"Of course." Bao Yunqiu smiled, "What are you for?" ”
"It's used to give away." Li Hualong replied with a smile.
"Kanaya Zangjiao?" Bao Yunqiu asked jokingly, she just said it casually, not thinking that he had met a new girlfriend.
"You guessed it." Li Hualong said with a smile.
"Really?" Bao Yunqiu was surprised.
"Really!" Li Hualong said lightly, "Don't ask more." ”
"If it is used to hide Jiaojiao in the golden house, it is not suitable to send an apartment, it is better to send a villa, so that you can go to the tryst." Bao Yunqiu said with a smile.
"Then give a villa!" Li Hualong said without hesitation, "In the past six months, I have bought more than a dozen hilltop villas, and I said that they would be renovated, and some of them have been renovated, right?" ”
"Yes." Bao Yunqiu said with a smile, "What grade of villa are you going to give?" ”
In the past few months, Li Hualong has bought a lot of villas, and after the transaction, the original owners of these villas moved out and vacated the house, and he did not rush to rent it, but left the house empty, the reason for doing so was due to two considerations:
First, at that time, the wave of immigrants was set off, housing prices plummeted, and rents also fell a lot;
Second, he is going to repaint the villa, redecorate it, and add or replace some furniture, which is not much compared to the investment in buying a house, but in this way, it can be cleaned up and the rent can be increased.
Li Hualong plans to wait for the Hong Kong property market to pick up. After the rent of the villas has increased, he rents out these villas without signing long-term leases, because he knows that the rent of villas in Hong Kong will increase significantly in the next few years.
As for the old buildings that were ready to be demolished and rebuilt, Li Hualong did not leave them empty, and rented them out in time, he did not plan to demolish those old buildings immediately and rebuild them, he was prepared to wait until the global oil crisis in 1974 and Hong Kong's unemployment rate soared. He then applied to the Hong Kong government to demolish the old building and rebuild it, so that it could not reduce the land premium, but also provide more jobs, which could help some people's livelihoods.
"Send the most expensive one." Li Hualong said.
"Then the stone manor in Sassoon Road, although it has not been renovated, the house is beautiful and looks quite new."
"That villa is nice...... That's it! Li Hualong said with a smile, he personally went to the stone manor to see it, and he remembered this old house for some years. Three more apartments will be given away, each about 1,000 square feet. ”
"How long have you known this new sister-in-law?" Bao Yunqiu's gossip heart attacked.
Li Hualong hesitated for a moment and replied, "Not long." ”
"Is it pretty?" Bao Yunqiu asked again.
"If she's not pretty, I won't look down on her!" Li Hualong rolled his eyes and said.
"Huh!" Bao Yunqiu joked with a smile. "You're so sweet. Do the three sisters-in-law know? ”
"I don't know how to talk to them yet." Li Hualong smiled bitterly, "You keep it secret for me first, and you can just know it alone." ”
"Don't worry, I'll keep it a secret for you." Bao Yunqiu said with a smile. "Send the villa, send the apartment, you are really generous...... Immediate closing? ”
"Hmm!" Li Hualong nodded. "Later, she will come over, and you will accompany her to see the house."
"Okay." Bao Yunqiu responded, stared at Li Hualong for a moment, and asked with a smile, "How old is she?" ”
"You'll know when you see her." Li Hualong said helplessly.
"Huh!" Bao Yunqiu laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Li Hualong glared at Bao Yunqiu, and said angrily, "I'm your boss, don't be light or heavy, be careful that there is no year-end bonus this year." ”
"There's no year-end bonus, and it doesn't matter, I've already gotten enough of this year's bonus." Bao Yunqiu said.
In the past few months, Bao Yunqiu bought a large number of old buildings for Li Hualong, and Li Hualong was very satisfied with her work and gave her a lot of bonuses.
"You're too easily satisfied." Li Hualong sighed with a wry smile.
"It's not that I'm easily satisfied, it's that you're too dissatisfied." Bao Yunqiu quipped, "The three sisters-in-law are so beautiful, why are you still not satisfied?" ”
"You can make fun of me now. However, when you see Liu Minchen, don't make fun of her. Li Hualong said.
"Don't worry, I will slap my sister-in-law well, in the future, she will be my boss's wife, can I not slap her ass!" Bao Yunqiu said with a hippie smile.
"You can't just talk seriously." Li Hualong shook his head helplessly.
Bao Yunqiu smiled and asked, "When will she come over?" ”
Li Hualong looked at his watch and said, "She should be coming over soon." ”
"You're not going to go with her to see the house?"
"No, I have other things to do today."
At this time, the phone in Bao Yunqiu's office rang, and she learned that a woman named Liu Minchen was looking for her, and she asked the front desk staff to bring Liu Minchen over.
After a while, Liu Minchen came to Bao Yunqiu's office.
"Chenchen, come and introduce to you, she is the general manager of Centaline Real Estate - Bao Yunqiu, you can call her Sister Qiu." Li Hualong introduced......
"Sister Qiu, hello." Liu Minchen smiled.
Bao Yunqiu stood up, took the initiative to shake Liu Minchen, and said with a smile: "Hello, I will call you sister-in-law in the future." ”
"Just call me Chenchen." Liu Minchen said with a slight shyness.
"Okay!" Bao Yunqiu stretched out his hand to invite, "Chenchen, sit down." ”
Liu Minchen nodded and sat down next to Li Hualong.
Li Hualong poured a cup of tea for Liu Minchen and said with a smile: "Drink some tea." ”
"Thank you!" Liu Minchen smiled, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea.
"Chenchen, I can't accompany you to see the house if I have something, Yunqiu will go with you."
"Oh!" Liu Minchen responded, "I'm sorry to trouble Sister Qiu." ”
"No trouble!" Bao Yunqiu smiled, she stared at Liu Minchen a few times just now, felt that the other party was really beautiful, and thought to herself that if she was a man, she would also like such a beautiful woman.
Bao Yunqiu took a sip of tea, couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "Chenchen." How did you and the third brother meet? ”
Before, Liu Minchen didn't know that Bao Yunqiu called Li Hualong "third brother", but after hearing this sentence, she knew that "third brother" meant Li Hualong.
Liu Minchen hesitated for a moment and replied, "I work at Hualong Real Estate Company. ”
"What kind of work?" Bao Yunqiu asked again.
"Marketing Planning."
"You're a college graduate?" Bao Yunqiu asked.
"yes." Liu Minchen smiled and nodded.
"It's not going to be a graduate of the University of Hong Kong, is it?" Bao Yunqiu said with a smile.
"Yes."
"It seems that you and the third brother are really fateful, and I have a bit of fate, and I also graduated from the University of Hong Kong."
"It turned out to be a senior sister." Liu Minchen smiled.
Li Hualong drank the tea in the teacup and said with a smile: "Yunqiu, I handed over Chenchen to you, don't bully her." I went to work at Hualong Real Estate. ”
Bao Yunqiu and Liu Minchen both stood up, Bao Yunqiu smiled and said: "She is my sister-in-law, how dare I bully her, don't worry, I will take good care of her for you, today at noon, I can invite her to lunch, right?" ”
"Yes." Li Hualong smiled and said, "Chenchen, your sister Qiu is very talkative. You just have lunch with her. ”
"Okay, Sister Qiu and I hit it off at first sight, just like friends who have known each other for a long time." Liu Minchen smiled, "Sister Qiu." You say, don't you? ”
"Yes, we will become friends at first sight!" Bao Yunqiu nodded with a smile and muttered in his heart. "This woman is not simple, she looks like she is in her early twenties, and she is a little scheming......"
More than half an hour later. Bao Yunqiu drove Liu Minchen to Sassoon's Daode Stone Manor.
"Is it pretty?" Bao Yunqiu asked with a smile.
"Beautiful!" Liu Minchen said with a little excitement.
Liu Minchen saw the appearance of the main building and the layout of the garden, he fell in love with this villa, and she knew very well in her heart that if she hadn't married a good husband, she would not have lived in such a luxurious villa in her life.
Bao Yunqiu introduced: "This villa covers an area of more than 30,000 square feet, and the three-story main building covers an area of 4,000 square feet. ”
Liu Minchen smiled noncommittally, but she had a smile on her face, indicating that she liked this villa very much.
"The two-storey building is a workers' dormitory, the basement is a garage, and the mansion is surrounded by tall plants, like a fortress, solemn and noble......"
After listening to Bao Yunqiu's slightly inflammatory introduction, Liu Minchen liked this villa more.
"Do you know who used to live in this house?" Bao Yunqiu asked with a smile.
"I don't know." Liu Minchen shook her head, she felt that Bao Yunqiu asked this question, then there must have been a big person living in this villa before, and asked curiously, "Who is it?" ”
"Lu Yuntao."
"The owner of the film company?" Liu Minchen asked.
"Yes. You wouldn't be taboo, would you? ”
"No, it won't. He died in a plane crash in T Bay, and there is nothing bad about this house. ”
"It's good if you don't have a taboo, let's go, I'll show you around."
It took more than 20 minutes for Bao Yunqiu to take Liu Minchen around the stone manor, during which the two chatted about a lot of topics.
"If you are not satisfied with the decoration of this villa, just bring it up, it can be redecorated." Bao Yunqiu smiled.
"I think this villa is beautiful and there is nothing that needs to be changed." Liu Minchen smiled and sighed, "This house is really too big. ”
"The third brother will give you this villa, and you will accept it, in the future, you will have the third brother's children, and you will have to hire a maid at home, and there is nothing bad about the house being bigger."
"This villa must be very expensive......," Liu Minchen muttered, "I want this villa, those three apartments, I don't want it." ”
Bao Yunqiu did not directly persuade Liu Minchen to accept the three apartments, and asked with a smile: "If you only accept this villa, will you let your eldest brother and second brother live with you in the future?" ”
"No, it won't." Liu Minchen shook his head and said.
"Let others know that the maiden relatives of Li Hualong's wife and concubine live in a small house and live a poor life, so what will others think of him?" Bao Yunqiu asked with a smile.
Liu Minchen was stunned when he heard this, and said embarrassedly: "I haven't thought about this. ”
"There will definitely be gossip. To be honest, if the third brother sends the apartment to your eldest brother and second brother, there will also be gossip. You don't have to care too much about what other people think. The gift given to you by the third brother, you can accept it. ”
"I ......" Liu Minchen paused and asked with confidence, "Sister Qiu, do you look down on me in your heart?" ”
"Why do you think that?" Bao Yunqiu looked at Liu Minchen with a little curiosity.
"I confess that I want to marry a good husband who is rich. But I value feelings more and I really like Aaron...... He was so good to me that I was afraid that Aaron would think that I was with him for money. ”
"Little fool!" Bao Yunqiu said with a smile, reached out to hold Liu Minchen's right hand, and held it tightly, "What kind of person is the third brother, he is very accurate in seeing people." If he thinks that you are not worthy of his love, even if he has sex with you, he will only give you a sum of money to send you away, but will not give you a house. He will send you a house. It means that you have a certain place in his heart. ”
After listening to Bao Yunqiu's words, Liu Minchen's sensitive heart suddenly felt a lot better, and he smiled: "Thank you, Sister Qiu." ”
"What's polite, I treat the third brother as my own brother, you are his woman, isn't it my sister-in-law!"
"I don't know if Aaron will marry me yet." A flush appeared on Liu Minchen's face.
"When you were together, did you avoid getting pregnant?" Bao Yunqiu asked.
"Nope."
"Did the third brother say that you would give him a baby?"
"Yes."
"He asked you to have children for him, then he must want to marry you." Bao Yunqiu smiled, "Don't be too anxious. Over time, you will naturally get pregnant. You are pregnant with the third brother's flesh and blood, and his parents will definitely not object. ”
"I also want to conceive Aaron's child as soon as possible." Liu Minchen lowered his head shyly.
"Liu Minchen, I'm a few years older than you. If you don't mind, I'll say a few more words to you. ”
"Sister Qiu, you said that my sister doesn't understand a lot of things. Please teach me as well. Liu Minchen looked at Bao Yunqiu expectantly, she felt that Bao Yunqiu was willing to help her, then she could better catch Li Hualong.
"As I understand it. Ah Long is not a stingy person, Yang Meng, Xi Chongyi and Chen Sisi, their maiden relatives are living a good life now. You don't have to think about asking Aaron to send you money for the house, whatever he wants to give you, you can accept it with peace of mind. If you feel that he is good to you and has given you favors, then you should repay him well. Hehe, I don't know if you've ever heard such a saying, enter the hall, get down to the kitchen, lady under the bed, slut in bed? ”
Liu Minchen listened to Bao Yuqiu's words, a blush suddenly appeared on his face, he was stunned for a long time, and said in a low voice: "I've heard it." ”
"Do you think it makes sense?"
"Kind of makes sense."
"In a word, you have served Li Hualong well, you don't need to worry about money in your life."
"I ...... Sister Qiu, I still want to be able to help him in my career. Liu Minchen said with a red face.
"Looks like you're ambitious." Bao Yunqiu smiled, "It's not a bad thing to be ambitious, but for my daughter, family is the most important thing." The third brother's current three wives and concubines all have jobs, but work is just the spice of their lives, and they attach great importance to their families. ”
Liu Minchen understood what Bao Yunqiu meant, she could go out to work, but she couldn't be too ambitious, and she should spend more time taking care of her family.
"Thank you!" Liu Minchen sincerely thanked him.
Before, Liu Minchen had already learned from Bao Yunqiu's mouth that Bao Yunqiu and Li Hualong had known each other since childhood, and she felt that Bao Yunqiu and Li Hualong, as well as Li Hualong's family, had a very close relationship, and she thought that there would be no harm in handling a good relationship with Bao Yunqiu.
"You're welcome." Bao Yunqiu smiled, "In my heart, the third brother is my own brother, although he is a little distracted, I hope he can be happy and will not worry about the incompatibility of his wife and concubine." I won't say more, you're a smart man. Hehe, look at what furniture needs to be changed in this house. ”
"It's all pretty and doesn't need to be changed."
"The furniture in the living room can not be changed, but the large bed in the bedroom should be replaced with a new one." Bao Yunqiu said, "Let's go to the master bedroom and have a look." ”
"I'm sorry Sister Qiu."
"Don't be polite to me."
When he arrived at the master bedroom, Liu Minchen liked the big bed very much, and said: "Sister Qiu, I think these beds are very beautiful, I like them a lot, they feel like antiques." I've heard Aaron say that he likes antiques, so don't change this bed yet. When I saw Aaron, I asked him and if he didn't like it, he would replace him. ”
"That's fine, if you like it." Bao Yunqiu said with a smile, "Before moving in, you ask someone to come over to clean up, especially the bathroom utensils in the bathroom should be cleaned, wash them several times." If you feel that it is old and you don't like it, you can replace it with ......" (to be continued......
